Determining term size after SIGWINCH?

[NoOne]

Hi,

I hope this isn't an FAQ - I've looked through the ncurses docs and can't
find an answer...
I'm writing an app which has multiple ncurses windows on screen (not
subwindows) and I want the app to redraw itself to fill the terminal
properly after resizing.

I can catch the SIGWINCH just fine, but then how do I (platform
independently) determine the new size of the term? The LINES and COLS
variables don't update, so I'm considering trying to query the client
directly via a telnet NAWS request to get the new size. This would work
over a net connection, but not for Linux consoles or consoles on other
OSes.

Is there a better way to go about this? Is there an ncurses call I'm
missing?

Thanks,
